Title: High throughput physical vapor deposition system for material combinatorial studies
Inventor: HE TING
IPC: C23C14/04
Filed: 2005-01-11
Granted: 2010-10-26
Abstract: An infinitely variable physical vapor deposition matrix system that allows the synthesis of multiple combinatorial catalyst samples at essentially the same time, by the co-deposition of multiple materials, or the sequential layer by layer deposition of multiple catalyst constituents, or both, such that the optimum mix of materials for a pre-determined application can be experimentally determined in subsequent testing. The discovery of optimal catalyst combinations for utilization in specified reactions and devices is facilitated. The high throughput system reduces the time and complexity of processing typically required to formulate and test combinatorial catalyst materials.

Abstract: A group of phytochemical compounds extracted from whole germinated or not germinated black beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L) and/or their dry milled fractions such as seed coats or hulls and cotyledons is described. These phytochemicals are classified as phenolics, such as polyphenols, flavonoids, coumarins, and tannins, triterpenes such as saponins, phytosterols and other antioxidant compounds that proved to be effective to decrease cancer proliferation of hormone dependent mammary (MCF-7), hormone independent hepatic (HepG2) and colon (Caco2) cancer cells. They also effectively protect against chemical damage induced with DMBA and furthermore prevented cancer induced by this chemical in Wistar rats and also reduced tumor size when consumed after tumor detection. Methanol, acetone, ethanol, water and mixtures of these solvents were used to obtain the extracts from raw, cooked, and germinated black beans of different varieties, both from the whole grain and the hulls. The black bean malting process produced extracts rich in aglycone forms of the previous mentioned compounds that were more biologically active against MCF-7 cancer cell proliferation. Both raw extracts, C-18 HPLC refined extracts and fractionated extracts may be used in the treatment, prophylaxis, amelioration or defense against a variety of hormone dependent and independent cancers. The extracts and compounds have additional utilities, e.g., lower cholesterol or lower oxidation of LDL and/or inhibit cholesterol synthesis (or the enzyme therefor) and/or reduce liver fibrosis and/or reduce symptoms of menopause and/or stimulate calcium absorption and/or have estrogenic activity such as feminizing estrogenic activity and/or are antioxidants, for instance, as an active ingredient in a nutritional supplement and/or as a food, cosmetic or pharmaceutical antioxidants or colorants.

Abstract: Système d'implant dentaire qui comporte un implant dentaire (1) et un élément de montage (2). L'implant (1) possède une zone coronale (1.2) avantageusement symétrique en rotation à forme cylindrique ou à forme tronconique à angle obtus, pourvue d'une surface périphérique entraînant l'ostéointégration. L'élément de montage (2) possède une zone périphérique (2.1) à extension apicale qui peut être emboutie en forme de capuchon et avantageusement dans une position de rotation pouvant être librement choisie sur la zone coronale (1.2) de l'implant, si bien qu'il repose contre la surface périphérique de l'implant. Ainsi, la ligne de bord (2.3) de la zone périphérique (2.1), reposant contre la surface périphérique de la zone coronale (1.2) de l'implant, forme avec ladite surface périphérique la microfente physiologiquement pertinente. Ledit implant (1) est implanté de préférence pour une intégration transmucosale. Après l'intégration, l'élément de montage (2) dont la ligne de bord (2.3) correspond par exemple au tracé de la surface osseuse naturelle autour de l'implant, est monté sur la zone coronale (1.2) de l'implant. Une longueur axiale de la zone périphérique et la position de rotation de l'élément de montage par rapport à l'implant sont choisies de manière telle que la microfente autour de l'implant vient se situer à une largeur biologique (D) au-dessus de la surface osseuse naturelle. La position axiale et le tracé de la microfente ne sont donc pas prédéterminés par l'implant (1), mais sont réglés après l'intégration de l'implant (1). Cela permet donc d'éviter l'élimination osseuse en vue d'obtenir la largeur biologique (D) entre la surface osseuse et la microfente, sans exigences extrêmement élevées concernant la précision de pose de l'implant.

Abstract: A hand held, one touch jar opener can be placed on a jar and activated with a momentary touch of a button. An epicyclic gear train is set to sequentially provide a grip on a jar, and on a lid, followed by development of torque needed to move the lid in a counterclockwise direction with respect to the jar. The principles embodied in the opener shown can be realized in an opener which can be manually powered, or preferably motorised and possibly highly automated. A differential gear train provides reduction of speed and increase in torque and then provides two balanced and opposing forces through the epicyclic gear assembly having sun and planet gears. This configuration enables a wide variety of screw-on lids and jars to be automatically closed to match the correct diameters, apply a gripping force and then apply torque in an opposing direction.
